I think it is cool that Nepalis train in martial arts. Nepali Tiger I hope you get really good and I will keep an eye out for you when you enter Pride fighting or UFC or whatever. as for me I do Taekwondo (yes I know your opinion of it and I dont care haha) I am good at TKD and I have good striking skills. But I would love to learn Hapkido for the self defense as well as jui jitsu technbiques or some form of grappling. I took wrestling when I was in 4th grade for a year though haha! I also took karate at age 6 for like a month or 2 and quit and also last yer I took a week of systema! I was anoyed its very weird and im not sure if its realistic or not. Anyway I love Taekwondo! Most TKD schools in the USA are weak and dont train in true TKD and only go for olympics or just selling belts. Also Aikido schools ussually are not very realistic but there is a new faction of aikido that actually has tournaments and they actually spar!! Its cool! So they actually can use their techniques in a fight!! If I had a LOT of money I would train in another school...all I do right now is lift weights and run at the gym.
